BOGOR Mayor of Bogor, Dedie A. Rachim, emphasized that the candidates for Regional Secretary (Sekda) of Bogor City to be elected must meet a number of important criteria. In addition to experience, candidates for the Regional Secretary are also expected to have communication skills, high integrity, and an in-depth understanding of the development direction of Bogor City in the future.
"First, you must be able to become an ASN coach, meaning that this person must have communication skills," said Dedie in his statement, Sunday, June 16.
According to Dedie, the experience and track record of candidates is the main basis in assessing feasibility, but that is not enough. The candidate's understanding of the policy direction and vision of Bogor City development is also the determinant.
"The most important thing for me is actually to understand the direction of Bogor's development in the future, and to know how to formulate steps to support the performance of regional heads in realizing vision and mission," he said.
Dedie also emphasized the importance of integrity and love for the city of Bogor as a very crucial added value.
"I want the candidates for the Regional Secretary to be people who have integrity, honesty, and love and understanding of Bogor. That's all," he said.
Previously, three candidates for the Regional Secretary had attended a meeting session with the Mayor at Bogor City Hall on Friday last week. They are the Head of the Regional Finance and Assets Agency (BKAD) Denny Mulyadi, the Head of the Health Service (Dinkes) Sri Nowo Retno, and the Assistant for Government and People's Welfare (Aspemkesra) Eko Prabowo.
The three have gone through various stages of selection, including direct interviews with the Mayor. However, Dedie admitted that he had not made a final decision. He said the three had their respective advantages, so they needed additional considerations.
"The value is thin. I need one more step to determine who. Maybe tomorrow afternoon," said Dedie, without indicating preference for one of the candidates, both gender and background.

Furthermore, Dedie said that the position of the Regional Secretary has a strategic role, not only in budget management, but also in creating a solid and responsive bureaucracy to the needs of the community.
"The regional secretary is the budget manager. He must have extensive experience and insight," he said. He ensured that all candidates had shown readiness, but the final decision remained in his hands as regional head.
